Marking the final year of the air-cooled Porsche 911, this 1998 Porsche 993 Carrera Cabriolet is finished in Arena Red Metallic over a Cashmere Beige interior. It features an optional Tiptronic automatic transmission with steering wheel shift buttons, 17” Cup 2 wheels, the Motor Sound Package, 8-way seats, and stainless-steel door sills with model insignias. The CARFAX report shows service entries from Porsche dealers in Southern California dating back to the early 2000s before it was relocated to Tennessee in 2022. Recently serviced and with approximately 85k miles on the odometer, this Carrera Cabriolet is now being offered for auction by its owner out of Kansas.
This Carrera is finished in the iconic 993-era color of Arena Red Metallic (L84S). Equipment includes a black cabriolet roof and matching tonneau cover, headlamp washers, integrated fog lights, black Porsche-branded brake calipers, dual exhaust outlets, a speed-activated rear spoiler, and a fixed “basket handle” spoiler with integrated brake light. The car rides on factory 17” Cup 2 alloy wheels with optional colored Porsche crest center caps and Michelin tires from 2022. The seller notes the windshield has been replaced due to wear and some paintwork was performed on the hood, rear decklid, and rear bumper cover for cosmetic purposes. The seller describes the car’s exterior as in good overall condition apart from some small door dings. Additional images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, this 993 features a Cashmere Beige partial leather interior with optional 8-way power-operated seats, exclusive stainless-steel door sill with model logos, an onboard computer, and a black leather steering wheel with Tiptronic shift buttons. Other accessories include power windows and mirrors, automatic climate control, cruise control, a sound system, and a Porsche CDR-210 stereo. The seller states that new carpet floor mats have been installed and the power cabriolet top motors have been recently replaced.
An air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six engine delivers up to 282 HP to the rear wheels through a 4-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission with a manual shifting mode. The optional Motor Sound Package is equipped which adds a revised airbox and muffler for a more aggressive tone. The seller states the car was recently serviced with new fluids, belts, and spark plugs. Additional maintenance history is provided on the CARFAX report.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a toolkit, a spare tire, an air pump, a battery charger, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “The car starts and runs beautifully. I currently own two 911’s and I’m selling this one. I searched long and hard and found a great car with no stories. I have owned many Porsches and the air-cooled is truly special. The car has always been garaged and impeccably maintained by me and all service items necessary have been addressed. I installed 4 new Michelin tires in late 2022 and they have plenty of life left.”
